The 2011 Cheltenham Festival will get underway with the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle, a race greeted by the famous roar from the crowd that tells us that four days of exhilarating horse racing action has finally begun.

Raced at a distance just over two miles, the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle is run at a frantic pace and it almost always gets the Festival off to a bang. A big field will tackle the race and some future stars of the hurdling and chasing world will be in action.

This year’s renewal looks set to feature 2010 Champion Bumper hero Cue Card who will be looking to make it back-to-back successes at the world’s most prestigious race meeting.
